South Sound Modern Quilt Guild (SSMQG) was founded in 2013 to provide support and fellowship to sewists wishing to take the next steps to modern quilting. SSMQG is based in the Lacey, Olympia, Tumwater area of Washington State, and serves the greater South Puget Sound region.  Many thanks to our 2013 founders: Melissa D, Bethany M, Kathleen B, Roberta M, Debbie S, Lori A, Honnah S, Donna F, Susan M, and Sandra H!

The mission of the South Sound Modern Quilt Guild is to "provide an educational benefit to the public and members by supporting and encouraging the growth and development of modern quilting and fiber art."   

The Guild’s methods for accomplishing this mission include:

• Sharing modern quilting and fiber arts skills, knowledge, and inspiration at regular member meetings;
• Offering education opportunities through classes, workshops, and retreats;
• Supporting and providing opportunity for charitable works that give back to the community through the use of modern quilting skills;
• Sharing quilting-related information through written media and the internet;
• Providing demonstrations and exhibits for the public in order to build recognition of, and support for, modern quilting and fiber arts.
